Howdy
Would be hugely grateful for any help and apologies in advance if I am asking something already covered elsewhere (have searched but to no avail).
Last night I tried to hack my 11.1.0-34e New XL. I was following this guide https://3ds.guide/installing-arm9loaderhax and got to "Section III - Configuring Luma3DS" before something went wrong. With my SD card in the 3ds appears to boot (blue light comes on but no wifi light), orange light comes on if charging but no matter what I try (select + power, start + power, L+R+A+power) both top and bottom screens are pitch black with no sign of life. If I boot with no SD card I get blue light for about 5 secs and then it goes out and nothing else.

This is because you are currently on 2.1 and the Nintendo 3DS folder was created when the console was on 11.2.
You have a9lh installed sucessfully. Don't panic. You can press Start on boot to launch Hourglass9, and restore (keep a9lh) the NANDmin.bin you created at the start of the guide.

Make sure your ds is off then press A + L +R + Left + the power button together and keep holding the buttons at the same time and wait till it turns on if it doesn't turn then I'm afraid I might not be able to help.

Download a 3ds discord app and join a homebrew server using this code MWxPgEp and ask for help from on of the discord members and they should help you that video over there seemed to help me but it doesn't seem to work for you so I suggest you try using the 3ds Discord app
